It's me waiting for Elijah.
I'm so not ready for guests, but if he does show up I'll just have to suck it up and deal.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Lots of love to all, celebrating or not, solo or gregariously.

Ah, crap. Just got notice I have to go to Goddard on Tuesday. By 9:30. Which means commuter traffic. Fuck you, Goddard.

Sorry to read that, sara. (Part of me wants to read that as Goddard=slavery)
This third cup is a doozy. The joke Haggadah is surprisingly serviceable.

Hah. I resent them telling, rather than asking. But it's security clearance, albeit low level, so what you expect. Ridiculous part is it is for systems I've had access to for 20 years. And do now. But someone has to cross off new mission requirements. I get to waste time & gas.
Oooh, but it looks like ikea has my chair in stock! So I can get it this weekend. (For nonsecular folk, this weekend is about figuring out what's open.)

Oh, I see. Well, good to have that crossed off, I guess, even if the whole thing is stupid.
Hooray for IKEA being open!
I think I am going to try to get to the John Muir Historic site 9am tomorrow for a "saunter". That means I have to actually get out of bed in the morning, which will suck, but once I'm up it'll be good, I think.

I am at a dance weekend. I'm always so torn. These weekends depress the hell out of me because there are so many amazing dancers here that I will never be even half as good as. But the only way to get better is to go to stuff like this. So I go and get depressed. I'm thinking maybe next year I just skip it and give up

Aw, meara. Can you spend some time with crappy dancers to balance it out?

Yes, meara, you should come to hang out with the Trianglistas and dance with me. You'll never doubt your dancing skills again. I've literally cried about my crappy dancing. More than once.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
You guys, I had the most fun night last night. It all started when the one guy in the group (gay) asked me to take his picture with the view, because we were at a rooftop bar, and some girl near us insisted on taking our picture together, which we decided would be our engagement photo. Then, the place has these "igloos" that are heated, but they all had people in them, so we asked some strangers if we could join them, and ended up having the best time with them! It was exactly what I needed. I haven't had a random night like that in years.
